I'll bet $50, but on the terms described above. I don't want the bet to be on my clairvoyance. I want it to be on Karl's comeuppance.
In a way, I've already won. There are plea-bargaining conversations going on as we speak, and you don't plea-bargain when you're innocent.
But I don't want to lose the bet on a "technicality." If you believe Karl is innocent of any wrongdoing--including lying to prosecutors, perjuring himself in front of a grand jury and obstructing an investigation and justice itself--then accept the $50 bet as outlined above.
You let Dana Carvey inside you, but you won't agree to Namo's much more interesting wager??

Jrby, that would be as repugnant as a naked James Carville and Mary Matlin mud wrestling!

This is a pretty great couplet, I have to say:
"I don't want the bet to be on my clairvoyance. I want it to be on Karl's comeuppance."
Still, I can see why you want the bet to be for money, but it's just so, so, I dunno, straight guyish.
technicality, my butt. either he's going to be indicted or he isn't. either they're going to charge him or they're not. but because i can see you are chomping at the bit to buy me some drinks, i'll cut a deal here on point 3: i only accept this if the "other(s)" rove implicates is/are a person(s) with equivalent or higher ranking than himself within the administration. i'd hate to lose $50 if he implicates some reporter.
"technicality, my butt"
so that's a yes on the prostate massage?
My offer for a bet stands as originally posted. I explained why in my previosu post.
The bet is not up for negotiation--or, more appropriately, plea-bargaining.
then, no, pj. as it's currently worded, karl could walk away for implicating tim russert and i'd lose (but win). so no thanks.

If you agree, I will act as escrow, each of you PM me $50.00.
If Karl did so, he would STILL be admitting guilt. The only reason Karl is plea-bargaining is that he is GUILTY. If he were innocent of all wrongdoing, the investigation would be over.
Pehaps brdlwyr or jrby or YWIW would be willing take the bet with you.
Or perhaps you'd like to take Namo up on the prostate massage. I hear he's been taught by experts.
is that he he guilty.
geez, pj, it's got ya stuttering again.
hey, if any of 'em wanna take the bet, it's on.
as far as namo's expertise, i heard he taught the experts.
I don't know. There's part of me that would be a little tickled to see Tim Russert in Correctional Orange.
Ken Lay?
Well, with a name like that, you just KNOW he's going to be everybody's girl at Sing Sing.
